The focus of this sprint will be to bring Plone more in line with what front end developers and content editors expect in a CMS these days. We will emphasize efforts that will improve the experience for both traditional Plone (5) and future Plone (Volto, Guillotina, etc.) Wherever possible, we will strive to make features available in both ecosystems. We hope to attract both traditional Plone and future Plone developers and provide a venue and topics that will encourage cross-fertilization. The goal of the sprint is to focus on efforts that will have high impact for both developers/integrators and non-technical users.

- Volto aka plone-react
